Prenatal Mentoring AZ

Blending the invaluable guidance you get outside of the delivery room from a doula with the expert knowledge of a childbirth educator.

Each of our sessions together will help you to build a foundation of not only education about your pregnancy, birth, and postpartum experience but a true connection to your baby and your partner.

You will learn the physiological process of birth, the decision-making tools that will instill confidence, explore your unique goals and envision what a satisfying experience looks like for the both of you in a single vision.  I will guide you both through your options, help you to build your birth and postpartum plan, as well as teach you hands-on skills for comfort and relaxation.

Ultimatly, my goal is to build your confidence holistically, answering all of your questions and teaching you exactly what you can expect no matter the path your birth takes. Valuing the emotional side of birth just as much as the physical I am able to be a well of knowledge and support during your sessions. I will guide you in how to communicate with each other and with your medical team during labor, leading up to your birth, and on into your postpartum experience.

This customized education is unique to your family’s needs and is different from traditional group classes, by giving you unlimited access to your mentor during your sessions and outside of your sessions by phone or email. There is value in knowing I am on-call for your burning questions and the peace of mind that can bring to your experience.

 

"Birth is not only about making babies. Birth is about making Mothers- strong, competent, capable mothers who trust themselves and know their inner strength."

Leanna was great! For various reasons we got her help with “everything but the birth.” She really helped my husband and I know what we would need at the hospital, particularly in regards to communication and emotionally. My husband and I both felt empowered to ask for what we wanted for our birth experience and went to the hospital in sync with each other. I’m so grateful for that and wouldn’t have had that (or known that I needed it) without Leanna’s help.

Leanna is well educated in her craft and was able to answer all of our questions. She came well equipped to each of our visits with hands-on interactive activities and handouts. She was patient and a good listener when we shared about our previous births and she respected each request and helped us find resources to aid our unique experience. She was very knowledgable and friendly and even made herself available to answer questions via phone call and text.
